Multiphoton microscopy (2P) overcomes many of the limitations that conventional microscopy faces by being able to image deeply, quickly, and in 3D — providing compelling and useful data in a variety of disciplines. A combination of ultra-fast pulsed lasers, lenses with high numerical apertures, and highly sensitive detectors provide fast Z imaging and makes Bruker’s 2P technology a go-to technique for revealing dynamic biological processes deep within living tissues. Here, Bruker summarizes t

A drug commonly used to treat alcoholism may offer a way to revive some vision loss caused by age-related macular degeneration, a study with mice shows.

Researchers at the University of California, Berkeley, have found that a drug once widely used to wean alcoholics off of drinking helps to improve sight in mice with retinal degeneration.

Findings from a new study show that disulfiram decreased retinoic acid production, and nearly-blind mice treated using the drug were much better able to detect images on a screen.
